I'm a relatively late joiner here. A lot of users from Telltale's forums migrated to these boards, and after a while, I followed suit. While I backed Broken Age, I wasn't active on the forums then, but I did get a little more active in the MASSIVE CHALICE boards, like with the Bloodline Backer testing.
I'll miss the forums here. I like the ability to go back an re-read old posts and threads, or be able to participate in conversations that were initiated much earlier, which are things I don't think you can do as easily with the real-time discussion of Discord. But I'm glad they plan on keeping these boards archived, and, I will adapt.
To all those who posted here, thank you for all the fun and games! Thank you to the moderators for trying to keep us in line. And thank you to Double Fine for providing this service, as well as the new ones!

Awww, bummer. I know these forums weren't used much, but it was nice having them around. According to Spaff, they'll still be here to read, so I can take some comfort in that. I kind of preferred the forum system to Discord's real-time chat. But I guess I'll have to adapt. Is there a date for when they'll be shut down for good?

It looks like they'll be getting rid of their classic in-house game engine, the "Telltale Tool", in favor of Unity.

In honor of Gabe Cinquepalmi (Costume Quest producer/writer, and creator of Double Fine comic "Dirt Nap"), I made the following. I'm sorry.
And one more, because circles are easy to draw. You've heard of an Everlasting Gobstopper? Well, this is an Underwhelming Globstobber.

Great job, everyone! Looking good!
@Jenni, Nice one! I guess if Tim got "Schafer's Wafers", Spaff deserves a "Spaffy Taffy". Any other DF'ers want to be immortalized in Creepy Treat form?
@Kewl Lemon, If Double Fine were edible, I'd give it to all the Trick-or-treaters! I like how you made the robot look like the costume from Costume Quest! Looks chewy, too!
Here's some more from me:
Double Fine, you better make Costume Quest 3 fast, before we take all the good Creepy Treats. (Or you can just use ours.)

Is anyone else here playing Cuphead? I was a little hesitant at first, since super-hard bullet-hell type games never really appealed to me. I'll admit, I've gotten frustrated on several occasions, but after (a lot) of practice, I finally got the hang of some of the tougher levels. And, of course, the beautiful visuals and music make the game a sheer delight.

Ha, ha, I really dropped the ball on this one. But FIE! on forum etiquette, I'm bringing this back. Hopefully I'll get in a few more by Halloween. Here's the one I planned to pair with the last one:
Hint:

To vary up gameplay, it looks like a lot of those ideas could be combined differently for each game. Like "You're the tooth fairy, but you have babies for hands" or "Tennis hell, but hands are snakes", etc. Or mix it up like: "one hand baby, one hand beehive". Anyway, it's looking like a lot of goofy fun! I like that art style and floppy effect!
